There's a guy in Canada that I often go to for cheap cd's. His name 
is Bill Bennet (known as the ComputerHelperGuy) 
http://www.chguy.net/index.html . He'll provide you with just about 
anything you want--standard distro's, special orders, BSD, you 
name it. If it's available, he'll burn it for you. Single CD's go for $5 
Canadian.

He does ship to the U.S. I don't know about other countries, but 
you can ask. I've found him to be very accommodating. He provides 
e-mail support for free if you have a problem.

He's also a certified nutbar. His e-mails are always interesting!
